186 CLXXXVI. The Symbol Of Power (1/2)

”It looks like this bastard is mad at you... brother” Gridd said in a low voice, touching her side sorely.

Dag pulled out the hammer and the axe, walking towards him.

”Before I kill you, just tell me one thing... you're one of their Masters, aren't you?” he asked, starting to focus on activating Call Of The Berserkr.

The man lowered his arm which he had pointed at him, without saying anything.

Within seconds, Dag's ability was activated and his muscles increased in volume, while the gray gas leaked out of his arms.

”I knew that” he continued, interpreting the man's silence as a confirmation to his question.

As Dag walked slowly, angry at the pain the man had caused Gridd, the enemy charged at great speed towards him, increasing the magnitude of the flames that engulfed his weapons.

Dag dodged the first shot, then the second.

”If you knew you were meeting me here, you should have trained more... your shots are slow!” he said, dodging yet another fiery shot, hitting the man with a hammer in his chest, knocking him metres away as the weapon emitted electric shocks.

Despite the powerful blow, the enemy managed to rotate nimbly in the air and after a backflip landed on his feet, ready to fight again.

Meanwhile, the liquid Dag had just synthesized entered his skin, strengthening the muscles of his arms and torso even more.

At the same time, his right eye also turned purple.

Without wasting any more time, other runes on the enemy's arms lit up, and he, waving his blades toward Dag, produced a green flames vortex.

Dag clenched his fists forward, bringing the handles of his weapons into contact and responding to the fire with a Shockwave, which was enriched by the purple lightning bolts released by Magni's hammer.

When the two magical attacks collided, the flames were dissipated in a matter of seconds and the enemy sprang out of the dust, taking advantage of the poor visibility to catch Dag by surprise.

This time he tried to hit him with a lunge, but Dag deflected the blow with the blade of the axe, which impacted against the three fiery blades of the fist weapon emitting sparks.

After unbalancing the enemy, he turned on himself and struck him again with the hammer.

With a sudden, almost inhuman movement, the enemy managed to twist his arm and parry the blow headed to his head with the other hand.

This was not enough to block the advance of the hammer and the hooded man's arm broke by bending over itself and emitting a lousy noise of broken bones.

As soon as he fell to the ground, Dag lifted the axe and hit him in the middle of his back.

”Umpf... rrgh!” said the enemy, trying to hold back the pain.
